NEW YORK, Sept 15.-Cleveland defeated the
Metropolitans to-day. Both sides played well.
Cleveland made more erroIs than the Metropoli-
tans, but they not costly, and very little
gained. Crowell pitched good game.
Allen distinguished himself by making fine
"a
good work al the bat. For the Metropolitans
hoDors were pretty evenly divided, but Houck,
at short and Darby O'Brien, at first base. had
little the best of it: The Metropolitans were
weak at the bat Their fielding could hardly
have been better. Score:

CINCINNATI. A; METRoPoLITANs, O.
NEW YORK Sept. 10 The Metropolitans and
Cincinnatis played off postponed game at the
st. George grounds this morning, and the for
mer's long list of defeats was increased by an
other, and that a whitewash. Mullane and the
Kid were the battery and but three hits, of
them a double, ali the Metropolitans could
get off Tony. But one man reached third. Fa-
gan, a native of Troy, late of the Rutland, VT,
club pitched his first game for . the Metropoi-
tans, and did creditably. He started off by Civ
ing the first two men their bases on balls, but
settled down after that and showed good control
of the ball, plenty Of speed and excellentcurves.
The Red Stockings played errorless game,
not even a passed ball wild pitch having to
be credited against them. McPhee's base
ming, Mays fine catch of Reilly's fly, Radford's
brilliant double play by making a splendid
throw from right field to third base, were fea-
lures of the game. Score:

CINCINNATI, IL; BROOKLYN, 1.
NEW YORK, Sept 15.-The game at Brooklyn,
to-day. between Cincinnati and Brooklyn, was in
great contrast to that of yesterday The game
to-day was played in a slovenly manner, espe-
cially by the home team. The Brooklyns tried
pitcher, named Cunningham. and ne
proved anything but a success. In the irst two
innings he was extremely wild. He gave four
four errors, gave the Cincinnatis eight runs,
three earned The fielding of the home team il
not worthy of mention, with the exception Of
Mcclellan and Phillips. Peoples did well under
the circumstances. The battery work of Smith
and Baldwin was fine need be. and. in
fact. all of the visitors folded in fine manner.
McPhee, Reilly and Fennelly did great work.
The batting was rather light, Brooklyn getting
five clean hits and Cincinnati eleven. A fine
double play by Mcclellan. Otterson and Phillips
was noticeable. The weather was fine and the
grounds In excellent condition. Umpire Con-
nell gave good satisfaction in his decisions.
